D-Link AX3000 Internal WLAN Bluetooth PCIe Adapter Wi-Fi 6 2402 Mbit/s

The D-Link AX3000 Internal WLAN Bluetooth PCIe Adapter (DWA-X582) brings Wi‑Fi 6 performance to desktop PCs via a PCI Express slot. It supports dual‑band Wi‑Fi with maximum throughput of 2402 Mbit/s on the 5 GHz band and 574 Mbit/s on 2.4 GHz, plus integrated Bluetooth. The card is designed for high‑speed wireless connectivity for gaming, 4K streaming and low‑latency applications, and comes in a compact black design that fits standard PC cases.

Advantages

Wi‑Fi 6 technology provides higher throughput and improved efficiency compared with previous generations, enabling faster downloads and smoother 4K video streaming. OFDMA reduces latency and improves multi‑device performance by transmitting small packets together, while MU‑MIMO allows simultaneous communication with multiple clients to distribute bandwidth more effectively. The adapter also supports WPA3 128‑bit encryption for enhanced wireless security.

Suitable for

• Online gaming and VR with low latency requirements
• 4K video streaming and large file downloads
• Multi‑device home networks with many simultaneous connections
• Desktop PCs requiring integrated WLAN and Bluetooth over PCIe
